Air Show

The weekend of July 24th, we went to the Blue Angels air show. We actually bought tickets and went. We left the house around 10:30 a.m. and got there around 12:00 p.m. Brian was thinking he might drop off me and the kids, but when we saw how crowded the highway was, there was no way that was happening. So, we went to one of the designated parking lots and waited in a very, very long line for a shuttle to pick us up. The kids actually did quite well considering how long we waited. When we got there, we found a place to sit and watch. It was pretty fun, but the kids got tired of it pretty quick. They were all ready to go but we hadn't seen the blue angels yet. We decided that we had time to take the shuttle back and watch the Blue Angels from University Place (this was right by the river with the airport right on the other side). There was a really good view from University Place. We decided that maybe that is what we should have done in the first place. Oh well . . . maybe next time. Here are some pictures that we took at University Place.
